std.tar: avoid dependency on file system
In the iterator function which is the low-level API, don't depend on `std.fs.MAX_PATH_BYTES` because this is not defined on all operating systems, such as freestanding. However in such environments it still makes sense to be able to extract from a tar file. An even more flexible solution would be to accept the buffers as arguments to iterator() which I think is a good idea, but for now let's just set the same upper limmit across all operating systems.
